    Hey guys
    I have been doing nofap for like 2 years now, but longest streak so far is only 1 month. The worst thing is, I am doing PMO more and more often like everyday recently(probably due to the summer break and i got no pressure or busy crap to do). Like 2 months ago, my average streak would be 2-3 days, which mean I do pmo like once every 3 days. But now it is like uncontrollable, im literally doing it everyday, and just keeps looping. What do I do?
     
  2. you plan on doing 90 days. again and again.

    Savvy, what did it feel like when you did a 30 day nofap streak? Did it fell great at that point?

    What do you do?
    Find out what's causing it and stop it.
    I have something in my journal that might help control the urges.

    Also, one month is a huge accomplishment. I've never made it that far.
    My longest streak was 21 consecutive days, and that was before I found out about NoFap.

    Thanks I will take a look at your journals. I got 30 days streak when I was not too much into pmo, so that was not as hard back then. Nowadays, I can't even concentrate without thinking about PMO :(.

    If you could do it once, you can do it again.

  10. The same with me.
    The addiction is getting worse and worse.
    After a long streak I would binge till I could do no more. When I relapsed like a year ago I would only do it twice.
    The addiction is progressive.

    Be smart and find a good way to handle the urge.

    What did the trick for me so far is Sexual Anonymous.
     
  11. You just have to accept the failure and be patient, it's not easy. Try keep yourself occupied and only get into bed when you're really tired.

    Here is the problem, PMO is like a drug that gets you high. I can't even focus, say on studying. I can't, I keep getting getting distracted

    Here's a story which might help you not kick yourself so bad.

    A year ago i was on a 77 day streak, yest i was less then 2 weeks from 90 days

    I felt AMAZING, like totally a new man, I had begun to turn my life around in a big way and was seeing a beautiful girl.

    I relapsed....

    I lost EVERYTHING i did on that streak, i kept binging after that and couldnt get back to anything like a decent streak.

    I lost my home, i lost my pets, i got made redundant, i got fined $3000 for not paying my phone bill and tanked my credit score, I lost the girl i was seeing. This all off the back of feeling better and actually making process it's crushing, the pain and regret is almost too much to handle tbh.

    I kept trying though, maybe not hard enough but i kept trying, and now 1 year later i'm on day 15

    I feel so much regret you have to belive that but i'm still trying becasue it's what we have to do. And im extending my hand brother as to say i know what you are going through and we have to get through this.

    i'm on day 15 and i belive in myself this time.

    You can do this and you are not alone.
     
    lantti, Pyara31 and A nu start like this.
  15. It's a self help group from over the whole world. There are probably some in your city. there are meetings where people with sex addiction come to meet and talk about their problems. Very interesting.

    So that proves you can do another 30 days. That would be a good start.

    If you fail, you don't become worse. You've learned something from that, which has made you wiser and therefore, better.
